1. mime type description
Multi-purpose Internet Mail Extension (MIME, Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) is an Internet standard that extends the email standard, it supports mail messages in multiple formats, such as non-ASCII characters and binary format attachments.
Content-Type. This header field is used to specify the message Type. Generally. [Type]/[subtype]
Type has the following format.
Text: indicates the standardized representation of Text information. Text messages can be in multiple character sets or formats;
Multipart: connects multiple parts of the message body to form a message. These parts can be different types of data;
Application: used to transmit Application data or binary data;
Message: Used to package an E-mail Message;
Image: used to transmit static Image data;
Audio: used to transmit Audio or Audio data;

Subtype is used to specify the type details. The set of content-type/subtype pairs and related parameters will increase over time. To ensure that these values are developed in an orderly and open state, MIME uses Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) as the central registration mechanism to manage these values. Common subtype values are as follows:
Text/plain (plain text)
Text/html (HTML document)
Application/xhtml + xml (XHTML document)
Image/gif (GIF image)
Image/jpeg (JPEG image) [image/pjpeg in PHP]
Image/png (PNG image) [image/x-png in PHP]
Video/mpeg (MPEG animation)
Application/octet-stream (any binary data)
Application/pdf (PDF)
Application/msword (Microsoft Word file)
Message/rfc822 (RFC 822 format)
Multipart/alternative (HTML form and plain text form of HTML mail, the same content is expressed in different forms)
Application/x-www-form-urlencoded (form submitted using the http post method)
Multipart/form-data (same as above, but mainly used when the form is submitted along with file upload)
